Outdoor & Studio Senior Photos in Minnesota
A moment between who you’ve been and who you’re becoming.
Full of personality, independence, and everything that makes you you.
Senior sessions are about capturing that—your style, your energy, your story—so you can remember exactly what this chapter felt like.
What is a senior Session?
Senior sessions are a fully guided, personalized experience designed around you.
This isn’t about stiff poses or forced smiles. It’s about creating images that feel natural, confident, and true to your personality.
Whether your style is quiet and laid-back, bold and expressive, or somewhere in between—your session is built to reflect you.
When to Book
Senior sessions are typically scheduled the summer before senior year through early fall.
Fall dates fill quickly, so early booking is highly recommended.
Golden hour sessions are especially popular for their soft, flattering light.
What to expect
From the moment we start planning, everything is designed to feel easy and exciting.
You’ll be guided through locations, outfits, and posing so you never feel unsure—but still have the freedom to be yourself.
You can expect:
A fun, relaxed, confidence-building experience
Guidance on outfits and styling
Natural posing that feels effortless
Multiple looks and variety
A mix of candid and lightly directed images
"Hi Nicole,
I wanted to reach out and thank you again for photographing our wedding last Monday! We had an incredible day, and you were extremely helpful and supportive throughout.
I was absolutely thrilled with the few pictures I got to see while you we're taking them, and we can't wait to see the final product!"
Sincerely,
- Abby Madson

Let's document your Full story
"Nicole is a fantastic photographer. She was the first vendor we booked for our wedding. She worked with us for 3 total shoots; our engagement, wedding, and a fall/winter one for our first Christmas as a married couple. Each time she was super easy to work with, kind, professional, all of the things you want from a great photographer. And the pictures were absolutely STUNNING. I'm obsessed with my wedding pictures even two years after the fact. I fully believe I found my photographer for life! I will endlessly recommend her to my friends, family, and anyone looking! You won't regret booking with her!"
